A Charming Acquaintance.

The Baltimore San is responsible
for the following story;
"While Ralph Waldo Emerson was
on his way to California, several years
ago, he fell in with man who was al
together so sociable aud chatty that an
otherwise tedious journey was rendered
as cheerful as possible. This mans
name was Sackett, and he told Mr.. Elm.
erson that he resided in San Francisco
Mr.. Sackett pointed out the points Of
interest along the way, related lot OF
amusing anecdotes, and, best of all
was an attentive listener. The natura
consequence was that Mr.. Emerson
came TO the conclusion that Mr.. Sack
ett was as charming man as he had
ever met with, and 1t was in this posi-
tive conviction that he accepted Mr.
Sackettis invitation to dine with him
Immediately upon their arrival in Sar
Francisco. The next morning Mr.
Emerson was well-nigh paralyzed tc
find iu all the local papers this startling
personal notice; ''Professor Ralph
Waldo Emerson, the eminent philoso
pher, scholar and poet, is in our city
as the guest of Mr.. J. Sackett, the
well-knogn proprietor of the Bust
street Dime Museum. Matinees every

PoUar of a Kind Voice.

There is no power of love so hard to get
and keep as kind voice. A kind hand is
deaf and dumb. 1t may be rough in flesh
and blood, yet do the work of a soft heart
and do it with soft touch. But there is
no one thing that love SO much needs as
o sweet voice to tell what it means end
feels; and it is hard to get and keep it in
the right tone. One must start in youth
and be ON the watch night and day, at
work and play, to get and keep voice
that shall speak at all times the thoughts
of kind heart. It Is often ia youth that
one gets voice or tone that is sharp,
and sticks to him through life, and stirs
up Ill viii and grief, and falls like drop
of gan ON the sweet joys Of home. Watch
1t day by day as a pearl Of great price, for
1t will be worth more to you in days to
come than the best pearl hid in the sea.
A kind voice is to the heart what light Is
10 the eye, 1t is a light that sings AZ well
as shines, ,-Elihu Burritt,

ERAvT SUIT 10 BE ERouaHr AGAINST
sAT GOULD AND RSSsExzL aAGR III
FOREIGN BoSpHoLpERs.
EKw YoRx, May 25.-The consRasycial
Adserfissy says that . suit involving
$5.0o00o0 Ia about 20 be commenced
against Jay Gould and Resell Sage, as
trustees Of the consolidated mortgage
Of the Kansas Pacific Railway, by the
feEeiRn holders OF bonds issued under
THAI mortgage. Certain facts were
ELECTED during the resent examination
Of the Affairs Of the Pacific railways BY
the Pacifio Railway Commission which
have lonR been suspected By interested
parties, bat which they we're unable to
grove. Now all is made clear ard this
suit will be the result.
Ii is stated that in 1873. when the
plan TO consolidate the Kansas aud Pa
eiic and the Union Pacific roads was
aboat to be carried into effect, Sidney
Dillon. By preeoncerted arrangement,
had an attorney bring action against
Gould aud Sage. as trustees Of the
great Kansas Pacific blanket mortgage,
10 release $1,000 shares Of Denver Pa
cific stock from the lien Of the mort
gage. This stock Was worth $le0 per
share at par, but at this time il vas Of
no great market value. In place Of the
ordinary legal delay, an answer vas re-
ceivea on the following day and an ap
Slioation was made to Judge Dsnohue
for the appointment of H. II. RaoRles
as referee, and within the next two OF
three days Q so-ealled trial was hRd be-
fore the referee, during which Dillen
testified that the Denver Pacific stock
was worth about 500 600 or $300, 200,
though It's face value was S. 0O0.000.
The report was confirmed and q iuag-
ment entering the IS 600 600 worth Of
stock was closed from the lien Of mort
gage and transferred to Gould and
Sage as individuals. The whole suit,
involving so large q sun of msney, was
conceived, commenced and eRded in
side Of one week. On the same day or
the day after the at ok was transferred,
the COTS liidation was consammated,
aud shortly after that Denver Pacific
stock became worth its face valne.
Had il remained under the lien OF the
consolidated mortgage, each bond issued
would have been worth the pro rata
share OF $30O000o more than il is
today. This with interest would be
about $1,000, GOO.
1t is TO secure proportionats share Of
this am0ant that the foreign bond hold
ers propose to bring their suit, claiming
wrongful deprivation, and that q court
Of justice was improperly used 10 give
the color Of legality to the robbery. The
case bids fair 60 be one Of the greatest
lawsuits Of the day.
